Until tonight I thought Vin Diesel and I were the only two people on the planet who might actually want to see another Riddick movie. The last one, Chronicles of Riddick wasn’t exactly a box office sensation. But it seems another movie may actually happen.
In an interview here, Ian Stevens, one of the head honchos in charge of the Riddick video game series drops this throwaway line: “New Riddick films are in the works.”
They are? Where? How? He could be talking about more of those direct-to-dvd animated movies they were producing for awhile, but tonight I’m feeling optimistic, and he doesn’t offer any clarification, so I’m going with. Could another Riddick movie happen? Does anyone besides Vin and me actually want it?
According to Stevens, the Riddick franchise has found new life on DVD and in videogames. It is this popularity which may be what’s prompting the push for another entry, despite the poor box office performance of the second film.
